In misc.

ARMLFS generally avoids updates, unless deemed necessary.
I'll only ship tested updates to the "production" configuration images. All the downloads (available on this server host) are production configuration.

Things that do have a cronjob building updates:

  • The kernel
  • Firefox
  • KiCad
  • yt-dlp

As outlined above, the automated build process results are not shipped to anyone but me (unless you're really sneaky, in that case, you're on your own.) before I get to testing them and publish them.
I give zero promises about how often that might be.

Publishing to the production feeds needs a password-protected asignify key, so it purposefully cannot be automated.
The server in the "idle" state does not have the key in unencrypted format.
